New Exam Pattern and Preparation Tips
The VITEEE 2026 is a computer-based test that lasts for 2 hours and 30 minutes. A big change this year is the marking scheme. For every correct answer, you get +4 marks, but for every wrong answer, 1 mark will be deducted. This is called negative marking. The paper has 125 multiple-choice questions in total. It includes Physics (35 questions), Chemistry (35 questions), Mathematics or Biology (40 questions), Aptitude (10 questions), and English (5 questions).
Because of the negative marking, you should only answer questions you are sure about. To prepare well, students should focus on their NCERT textbooks for Physics, Chemistry, and Math. Practicing old question papers will also help you get faster at solving problems and avoiding mistakes.
Conclusion: Act Now for a Bright Future
In conclusion, the VITEEE 2026 is a gateway to a great career in engineering. Today, February 23, is the perfect time to finish your application because the website will get very busy as March 31 approaches. By finishing your form now, you can spend all your time studying for your board exams and the entrance test.
